Rescue of Jews in France 1940–44: the Jesuit Contribution journal of jesuit studies 5 (2018) 199-223 brill.com/jjs Rescue of Jews in France 1940–44: The Jesuit Contribution Limore Yagil Sorbonne University, Paris [email protected] Abstract Until recently, most Holocaust historians have devoted little attention to the topic of Jesuit priests who gave Jews shelter and helped them, in defiance of the orders of Vi- chy Government or the Germans authorities. In order to understand how it was pos- sible for about 250,000 Jews in France, not to be deported, and to find help among the population, it is important also to take into account the activities of Jesuits providing hiding places for several hundred children and also adults. Most of them were able to obey their conscience, and disobey orders, and to act illegally in order to rescue Jews. Rescuers were not working alone, but generally they developed networks including also non-religious people. Above all, this study reveals us how much it was important to accomplish rescue in a collaborative group of rescuers: the network. This study also reveals much about the modalities of rescuing Jews in France in different regions. Most Catholic rescuers had been engaged before the war in a spiritual and theological way with anti-Nazi activities, especially in helping refugees, and in resistance to anti- Semitism and racism. It was indeed the Catholics, and especially the Jesuits and Do- minicans, who raised the most attention regarding the Nazi danger, and this prepared them to act in rescuing Jews after 1940 in France.

On the other hand, the proportion of Jews deported from France was much smaller than that deported from Netherlands, Belgium, or Norway. Is it not surprising that among the Nazi-dominated countries of West- ern Europe the country reputedly most anti-Semitic had one of the highest survival rates? The answer of this French “paradox” is the assistance giving by French individuals, or by voluntary organizations, both Jewish and non-Jewish. In my books, I have proposed detailed analysis concerning those individuals who have disobeyed orders, laws, and instructions given by German authori- ties and the Vichy regime in order to rescue Jews. Civil disobedience can be understood as the individual reaction to a situation that is no longer tolerable. We can find social workers, nurses in hospitals, doctors, teachers and educa- tors, policemen and civil servants such as prefects (the prefect is the head of a department), secretaries of prefecture, artists, priests, pastors, bishops, and re- ligious sisters. Rescue activities took many forms and included hiding people, helping them escape, and providing false identities, food, and shelter. These activities had to be carried out in secret, there was always the risk of being discovered. Rescuers who were caught were arrested and sent to concentra- tion camps and prisons and many were killed. In this article, we are essentially interested in Jesuit priests and their help to Jews in France during the occupa- tion period. This article is based on documented accounts and archives mate- rial concerning the rescue activities of Catholics in France.2 1 François et Renée Bédarida, “La persécution des Juifs,” in Jean Pierre Azéma and François Bédarida, eds., La France des années noires (Paris: Seuil, 1992), 2:128–52; Asher Cohen, Per- sécutions et sauvetages: Juifs et français sous l’occupation et sous Vichy (Paris: Le Cerf, 1993); André Kaspi, Les Juifs pendant l’occupation (Paris: Seuil, 1991); Limore Yagil, Chrétiens et Juifs sous Vichy 1940–1944: Sauvetage et désobéissance civile (Paris: Cerf, 2005); Yagil, La France terre de refuge et de désobéissance civile 1936–1944: Sauvetage des Juifs, 3 vols.

It is difficult to characterize the chaos that was France in the days and weeks surrounding the armistice. In the short term, nothing was fixed. The towns and cities of the north remembering the occupation and conditions of the First World War emptied rapidly. Following the French capitulation in June 1940, France was divided into two main zones: the one occupied by the Germans and centered on Paris, and the other, unoccupied, where nominally the French writ still ran freely, and which eventually centered on Vichy. During the July 10, 1940 meet- ing at Vichy spa's casino, the National assembly entrusted the aged Marshal Pétain (1856–1951) with full powers to govern until he had drawn up a new constitution. The Third Republic was presumed dead and only eighty deputies mourned its passing. The one exception was the church, whose hierarchical organization was still intact and whose influence had increased. The hierarchy took the lead in backing Pétain, insisting that he could save France as he had in 1916. By the autumn of 1940, messages of support flowed in from all sections of the church. In 1940–41, the church was hand in glove with the regime, dazzled by the glory in which Pétain basked and convinced of the need for the national re- form. It reviewed uncritically controversial measures such as the anti-Masonic, anti-Communist and xenophobic legislation, including the first Statute of the Jews, and some churchmen even regarded them with benevolence. In offering full support to the “National Revolution” regime installed by Marshal Pétain, and for fear of endangering the Vichy program of restoration of the country, the Catholic hierarchy refrained from protesting against the unjust decree punishing the French Jews and kept silent. They maintained the same silence when the foreign Jews (October 4, 1940) were shamefully confined in “special camps” of evil character. The Statut des Juifs of October 1940 overthrew Republican values by target- ing French Jews, who suffered various restrictions. Vichy also treated foreign Jews (and other refugees) as particularly undesirable, interning them and read- ily handing them over to the Germans when asked. From 1941, Vichy collabo- rated with the gathering Nazi extermination of European Jews, especially as regarding “foreign Jews” on French soil. At that time, approximately 320,000 Jews lived in France, some of whom were refugees from Germany and other countries occupied by the Nazis. in- cluding thousands of children. Almost immediately after the occupation, Jews living in the occupied zone and those in the unoccupied zone were subjected journal of jesuit studies 5 (2018) 199-223 Downloaded from Brill.com10/01/2021 03:49:08AM via free access <UN> 202 Yagil to the first wave of anti-Jewish measures. In the German-controlled zone, Jews were stripped of their jobs, their freedom of movement became restricted, and many were arrested. At the same time, the Vichy government actively began to persecute the Jewish community, and in October 1940, a set of laws called the Statut des Juifs was passed. The discriminatory regime inflicted on Jews did not disturb the majority of French people before the big round-ups of sum- mer 1942, but there was anti-Semitism and xenophobia in the public opinion, which was manifested as soon as the pressure of the occupier or the govern- ment increased the sacrifices demanded. In the early days, the emotion raised by the tribulations to which the Jews were subjected gave rise to different ini- tiatives in order to help Jews. Protestants like Roland de Pury (1907–79) and Charles Westphal (1896–1972), who adhered to the Theses of Pomeyrol, were condemning openly anti-Semitism and the dangers of collaboration with the Germans. (The Theses of Pomeyrol constituted a statement drafted by Protes- tants on September 16–17, 1941 that dealt with the relationship between church and state and affirmed the right of the church to speak out publicly. Pomeyrol was the name of a French retreat center that was located in southern France.) Along with others Protestants, Pastor Marc Boegner (1891–1970), president of the Fédération Protestante, was among the first religious leaders to protest against Vichy’s anti-Jewish legislation. Robert Paxton says the first clear oppo- sition to anti-Semitism comes from Protestants.3 But in fact some isolated prel- ates, Jesuits, Dominicans, nuns, and other religious began to act as individuals in order to resist anti-Semitism and Nazism.4 In our study of wartime rescuers of Jews in France, sociologically we can find much variety of character and motivation. Some rescuers acted from spe- cific compassion for Jews, while others were anti-Semitic.

  • French Protestant Churches and the Persecution of the Jews in France Michael R
    French Protestant Churches and the Persecution of the Jews in France Michael R. Marrus Generally speaking, French Protestantism was inevitably more sensitive to the predicament of the Jewish minority in France than the Catholic majority. Numbering about 600,000 on the eve of the war, Protestants were divided into several confessional groups, gathered under the umbrella of the Fédération Protestante de France. Themselves a minority, Protestants had a long history of being outside the religious mainstream and carried a historical memory of fierce persecution during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Further, they often had Jewish or German-sounding names, and of course were normally unable to produce baptismal certificates, useful in proving that the bearer was not Jewish. Ever since the advent of the Vichy regime, as pressure mounted against Jews and Freemasons, Protestants harbored fears of “a new clericalism,” of which they too might become victims. In the summer of 1941, Pastor Marc Boegner, president of the Fédération Protestante, heard widespread rumors that Protestants were next on Vichy’s list of enemies. Along with a handful of other Protestants, Marc Boegner was among the first to protest Vichy's anti-Jewish legislation. Of Alsatian background, and profoundly patriotic, Boegner was widely respected at Vichy as a figure of international standing. His words could not be ignored. Under instructions from the Eglise Réformée de France, of which he was also the head, he expressed his objectives in two letters, sent in March 1941, one to the head of government Admiral François Darlan (himself of protestant origins) and the other to Isaïe Schwartz, then Grand Rabbi of France.

  • [email protected] Vichy, Crimes Against Humanity
    Henry Rousso Institut d’histoire du temps présent (CNRS, Paris) [email protected] Vichy, Crimes against Humanity, and the Trials for Memory Department of French-Italian, Department of History The University of Texas at Austin Lecture given at 9/11/2003 I would like to begin this talk about the way France coped with its past by making some general statements. Why it may be interesting to study the Vichy legacy, except of course if you are impassionned by French History? Why the history of the memory of the “Dark Years”, the years of the Nazi Occupation, may have some interest for other periods or other situations, in contemporary history? Why to study preciseley how the representations of the past or the behaviour towards the past has evolved from 1944, the Liberation, to the present days, may have a universal meaning ? We can propose several answers : - We may learn a lot in studying the “Dark years” because it’s a period in which a great power, the second world power at that time in terms of political and economic influence, collapsed in six weeks, after a brutal and unexpected agression against its territory. The panic of the defeat, the disarray coming from the vanishing of the State and of other authorities, led to a strong support for a dictatorship, the Vichy Regime, which abolished most of the political rights. The new regime, using the fear of most of the population, declared that France was no more a Republic, and that she had a lot of ennemies : not the Nazi Occupiers, but the Jews, the Foreigners, the Free- Masons, all kind of opponents: in short, for Vichy, one of the result of the defeat, ennemies were at home.

  • Banque Des Territoires Once Again Invests Alongside Tdf to Boost High- Speed Broadband in Rural Areas
    Press Release Montrouge, September 12, 2018 BANQUE DES TERRITOIRES ONCE AGAIN INVESTS ALONGSIDE TDF TO BOOST HIGH- SPEED BROADBAND IN RURAL AREAS Banque des Territoires will take a 30% equity stake in TDF venture subsidiary Val de Loire Fibre, a digital infrastructure operator, with a view to supporting ultra high-speed broadband roll-out in low-density areas of French counties Indre-et-Loire and Loir-et-Cher. Val de Loire Fibre was founded in January 2018 to roll out, operate and market optical fiber in the Loire Valley area under a public service transfer mandate. This latest deal shores up TDF’s and Banque des Territoires’ alliance that is spearheaded by Belvédère, a joint venture tasked with bringing mobile coverage to black spots in France. In February 2018, this alliance was further bolstered by Banque des Territoires taking a minority stake in Val d’Oise Fibre. TDF, regional broadband coverage partner of choice In December 2017 following a competitive tender lasting several months, the Loire Valley Joint County Syndicate awarded TDF a contract to manage the Public Initiative Network of French counties Indre-et-Loire and Loir-et-Cher. Over a five-year period, the contract scope covers the entire Public Initiative area representing 300,000-plus plugs designed to bring ultra high-speed broadband to local residents and businesses in both counties. In addition to the Loire Valley’s Public Initiative Network, TDF has won the Call for Investment Commitment contract of French county Les Yvelines involving 110,000 plugs and public service transfer contracts of French counties Val d’Oise involving 85 000 plugs and Maine-et-Loire involving 220,000 plugs.
